1800379 - text overlap in networking settings (regression in localized version of Firefox 107)

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Sören Hentzschel]

Attachment: screenshot

Please see the attached screenshot for the network settings in Firefox 107 with German as language. The "Learn more" link and the "Settings…" button overlap. I guess other languages with longer translations are affected as well. It's not reproducible with English.

It's a regression in Firefox 107, Firefox 106.0.5 is not affected.

I cannot bisect further as to https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=b66bbbcc4467d09a1ef10302ee1a085a675966a8&tochange=93a9b1ba6411a636b3f34e72ecef52fe87daca81

@Emilio:

Changing:

#preferences-root {
  -moz-box-layout: flex;
}

… to

#preferences-root {
  -moz-box-layout: initial;
}

… "fixes" the overlap. Therefore and because of the regression range I guess it's a regression from bug 1790307.

Before the patch the behavior was messy, stuff just kept growing horizontally indefinitely, now it wraps correctly.
